Yeah, I rented "the Tuxedo" a few months ago and couldn't get through it. Watching Jackie Chan w/ special effects making him to crazy stuff takes all the charm out of everything he does.
the reason his movies are great is because you sit there watching them going "Holyshit, he is really doing that!"
the Shanghai Noon and Nights movies are good. (for US Jackie Chan movies) and the Rush Hours were decent.
But I don't like this SFX jackie trend. I realize he can't be doing crazy stuff forever, but I don't think he should suppliment w/ visual effects.
